Careers In Education

With a graduate Master of Education degree or a terminal Doctor of Education degree, professionals have a historical, philosophical, theoretical, and research-based influence on their development as educators. Graduate degrees can be used as gateways to teaching or providing administrative service at the college or university level or as preparation for grant writing, program leadership or administrative roles.

Earning a graduate degree is also an indication that the individual has focused on developing his/her skills in educational philosophy and pedagogy even further, has the knowledge and understanding of select content areas, has conducted and presented research projects in education and related fields, and is capable of providing effective leadership for curricular and instructional programs in elementary, secondary, community college, higher education and other educational settings.
